Zusammenfassung

Hautalterung wird durch eine Kombination von endogenen Faktoren und Umwelteinflüssen bestimmt, die unter anderem epigenetische, posttranslationale, mikrobielle und Lifestyle-Faktoren beinhalten. Insbesondere spielen genetische Änderungen, vorprogrammiert oder nicht, eine zentrale Rolle, und das Verständnis dieser komplexen Mechanismen kann zur Prävention von altersbedingten Krankheiten und zur Verlängerung der gesunden Lebensspanne beitragen. In diesem Artikel sind neue Erkenntnisse über Gene und biologische Prozesse zusammengefasst, die die Hauthomöostase im Alter signifikant beeinflussen können und zu den typischen morphologischen und physiologischen Merkmalen der alternden Haut führen können.

Abstract

Skin aging is determined by a combination of endogenous and environmental influences, including epigenetic, posttranslational, microbial, and lifestyle factors. In particular genetic changes, programmed or not, play a pivotal role and understanding of these complex mechanisms may contribute to the prevention of age-related diseases and extension of healthy lifespan. In this article, new knowledge about genes and biological processes that can significantly affect skin homeostasis in old age and can lead to the typical morphological and physiological characteristics of aging skin are summarized.
